Chapter 29 The Battle for Blackbeard, The Earl's Noble Phantasm
Akainu on the bow of the ship showed no surprise at the fact that his attack had been absorbed.
His sharp gaze remained unchanged as he looked towards the west and north, his Observation Haki detecting the enemy.
This is true.
In the West, the air seemed to solidify, carrying a sticky, sweet scent.
A giant mirror floated out of thin air on the sea, its surface rippling. Katakuri's tall figure stepped out first, followed by a large number of biscuit soldiers!
His Observation Haki precisely locked onto Teach across half a deserted island.
"By order of my mother, bring Blackbeard Teach here! Alive."
From the north, a savage, ferocious aura, like that of an ancient behemoth, swept in!
In the sky, a black pterosaur with flames burning on its head appeared, while on the sea, the menacing bow of the Mammoth tore through the mist.
Jack the Drought stood at the bow of the ship, carrying two enormous scimitars, and let out a deafening roar.
"The scum who defected from Whitebeard's ship are right ahead! Men, move the ship closer!"
Suddenly, the scene changed drastically.
Katakuri's face was serious: "There are other people on this island! It's Admiral Akainu, and Kaido's subordinates, Wildfire and Drought."
Cracker, hiding inside the cookie man, was unconcerned: "What's there to be afraid of? Once we catch that black-bearded guy, we'll have Brulee send us into the Mirror World. Nobody can stop us then."
Katakuri recalled the fragments of the future he saw at that time, which were chaotic and bloody.
His serious expression remained unchanged: "We'll observe from the sidelines for a while, and if necessary, abandon the mission and prepare to escape."
As Jin flew through the air, he met Akainu's murderous gaze, which terrified him so much that he broke out in a cold sweat and landed on Jack's ship.
"It's Admiral Akainu! Jack, we're outnumbered..."
Jack didn't hear him at all; he just kept waving his scimitar and shouting rudely.
"You idiots, move the boat closer to me! Closer to me!"
At the same time and in the same place, the three forces turned their attention to Blackbeard Teach, who had just caught his breath!
"Thief...thief hahahaha!!!" Faced with this sudden predicament, Teach was stunned for a moment, then burst into hysterical laughter.
His eyes shone with madness and a desperate will to survive.
"See that, Earl! I'm really going to be famous! Even generals and high-ranking officials from the Five Emperors have come to support me!"
Akainu's anger intensified, and the billowing steam emanating from his body seemed poised to tear everything apart.
"The pirates have indeed made their move! We absolutely cannot let them succeed. They've delivered themselves right to our doorstep; let's wipe them all out right here!"
Upon hearing this order, the entire navy crew on board were immediately alarmed.
"Those are the Five Emperors' officers... Are they really going to wipe them all out here? No wonder he's Admiral Akainu!"
Akainu narrowed his eyes and instantly locked onto Blackbeard.
"Before that, render Blackbeard incapable of resisting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped up and raised his right fist above his head, eventually forming a hellhound made of magma.
The hellhound's temperature was extremely high, and it sizzled in the air.
"Kinniku Guren!"
The lava hound seemed to come alive, roaring with a chilling, endless killing intent.
This move even made Blackbeard, who believed he could devour everything with darkness, break out in a cold sweat.
He gritted his teeth and gathered all his strength.
"After being burned by that golden-armored bastard, I don't want to run into anyone related to fire again!!!"
"Dark caves! Dark water!!!"
Boundless darkness spread from beneath their feet, and a black vortex, carrying rolling waves, collided with the hellhound.
A hint of horror flashed in Akainu's eyes: "I didn't expect that even with Haki added, it could still be absorbed?"
Sweat poured down the black-bearded man's face, and his clenched teeth showed how much he was struggling.
The darkness, which should have devoured everything, failed to engulf the magma this time.
The two were locked in a stalemate for a time.
Katakuri, who had been observing from afar, saw his opportunity: "Now!"
He burst forth with tremendous speed, his hands stretching out infinitely long.
On the sea, King, who had been circling, finally found an opportunity. The flames burning on his head stopped, and he rushed towards Akainu in the air at full speed.
Akainu's Lava Hounds are about to shatter the darkness, hurtling in with a whoosh! Katakuri's Mochi Bindings are spreading silently! Jack's ship is tearing through the air with a whooshing sound!
At the critical moment!
The black-bearded man's eyes widened in horror, and he cried out, "Count, save me!"
The shadow beneath Teach's feet suddenly boiled and expanded!
A figure more solid than ever before, filled with endless resentment and the chill of the abyss—unleashed terrifying power in the face of despair, forcibly appearing before Teach!
The count's hat was pulled down very low, obscuring most of his face, revealing only a twisted and insane smile.
He opened his arms as if to embrace this malicious world, his deep, hoarse voice, like the shrieking of a million vengeful spirits, echoing across the entire sea.
"What an ugly feast... greedy hyenas... hypocritical hunters... foolish butchers...!"
Tiger! Burning Bright! Noble Phantasm Variation - Hell of False Witness: Echoes of Resentment!
In an instant, an indiscriminate mental shock and resentment erupted.
Om-! ! !
A visible mental storm, a mixture of scarlet and pitch-black, suddenly exploded out from the Earl's center!
Like countless poisoned needles, they pierced the minds of every living being present!
Akainu's Lava Hound suddenly froze!
Countless distorted faces and scathing accusations of those who were mistakenly killed and sacrificed by "absolute justice" flashed through his mind in an instant!
The sight of tens of thousands of women and children in Ohara turning into skeletons repeated itself before his eyes.
That cold resentment clashed with the wall of his firm belief, causing his movements to falter and waver for the first time!
Katakuri’s Observation Haki, which allows him to foresee the future, is filled with endless scenes of pain, betrayal, and despair from different timelines!
The cracker next to him was exactly the same.
The scenes of despair kept replaying in their minds: their mother falling into lava and dying, and most of their brothers and sisters being violated and killed by other pirate crews.
Even with Katakuri's strong will, he was still hit by this torrent of purely malicious information and let out a muffled groan, and the rice cake restraints immediately went out of control.
Jin saw the days he had been studied as an experimental subject. The feeling of being in darkness suffocated him, and his will to charge forward vanished. He fell directly into the sea.
Jack, being a reckless brute, was the most directly affected!
He felt as if his head had been smashed by a giant hammer, and countless malicious whispers roared in his ears, as if he could see Lord Kaido's disappointed and angry face and his mocking laughter!
He roared, his huge curved swords going out of control and slamming into the mast of his Mammoth!
Crack! The thick mast snapped in two!
Other Marines, Big Mom Pirates members, and Beast Pirates Gifters.
Those who were slightly weaker were hit even harder, clutching their heads and screaming in pain, falling into a brief state of confusion and disorientation!
The biscuit soldiers' movements became stiff, and the navy's formation began to falter.
The entire battlefield descended into absolute chaos due to this sudden and indiscriminate storm of resentment!
Although Blackbeard felt his strength was being drained, he couldn't help but burst into wild laughter.
"Phew! Hahaha, did you see that? This is my heroic spirit!"
"Now! Let's go!" The count's voice was filled with madness as he suddenly grabbed Teach, who was still laughing wildly!
"Dark Water!" He reacted extremely quickly, his jet-black right hand aimed at the rock behind him and sucked it in!
The rocks were instantly swallowed by darkness, revealing an entrance to a complex cave system inside the island!
Without hesitation, the two plunged into the darkness and disappeared into the depths of the cave.
